Since noone poste other strengths and weaknesses, I assume we can go on to=
=20
looking for improvements.=20

Firstoff, here=E2=80=99s the list of the main strengths and weaknesses of t=
he current=20
Gnutella network:=20


+ Strength: Requires very little bandwidth for global connectivity (a
leaf can run off a 56k Modem, an UP off a ISDN line).

+ Strength: Powerful fully decentral swarming [additional note: with full
file verification using tiger tree hashing].

+ Strength: Seperation of exact search (locating sources) and fuzzy search
(looking for content; p2p Google) into two optimized networks (original
GNet + DHT; one tool for one task).

+ Strength: Can use standard http sources as seed files for downloads.

- Weakness: No included community building (like torrent sites with
statistcs and verification).

- Weakness: Hard to write a new servent which connects to Gnutella (harder
for new developers to get in).

- Weakness: No easy (and low overhead) way to do specialized searches (like
regexp or metadata - like =E2=80=9Cshow me articles written by Richard M.
Stallman=E2=80=9D).

- Weakness: No integration into desktop applications (like jabber clients
for finding first connections - or Gnutella for file transfer: =E2=80=9Chey=
, wait,
let me send you this file=E2=80=9D -> if the other is Gnutella enabled, sen=
d a
magnet with me as first source and automatically enter the swarm for
awesome download speeds).



As I see it, most of the weaknesses are no integral limitations, and aside=
